Little Creek Stainless Steel Water Distiller VKP1208

I brought this to make my own distilled water for my CPap machine. It takes a long time but once every few months I make 4x5ltr amount of water I need... cost.. well As of sept 2024 @ 6p per kw (in the UK) 2x5ltrs of distilling used 18 kw of gas... (Both number rounded up kw price 5.76p and kw used 17.82 kw) UK. In sept 2024! I will save money after the cost of the pan is recouped!! And you can make a cup of tea and some soup with the left over water on the top pan! Lol

Really gd product. But, it uses a lot of gas/electric so something to think about. Also, if you're looking to produce distilled water in huge volumes, this won't do the job. Product also uses silicon tubing which is also something to think about.

Muy eficiente, fácil de utilizar

Wenn man nur eine Destillationsvorrichtung für Wasser benötigt und diese auch auf einer normalen Kochplatte, Gasherd, Holzofen einsetzen will, findet man hier ein solide verarbeitetes Topfsystem (aus den USA aber Made in China) mit einwandfreier Funktion. Einfach +praktisch.

This arrived a day early, well packaged in a box inside a box. Looks and feels well made, had no dents or missing parts. I'm experimenting with it now. It takes a long time to distill water in this, so be prepared to take half a day just to get a gallon of drinking water. The idea is that you fill the top compartment with cold water and fill the bottom with the water you want to distill. The steam then rises through the cone-shaped bit in the middle compartment, condenses off the bottom of the upper compartment, and drips back down. You can then use the attached hose to drain the water into a glass or metal jug. The water in the top part doesn't stay cold for very long, so you have to constantly replace it. Instructions say not to use ice in it, but I might try adding a little just to see if it makes a difference in how fast the water distills. Otherwise, it's not a bad distiller for the price. I washed the pans as per the instructions, but the first water I distilled looks a bit yellow. I don't know if it's the tap water, itself, that's the issue or maybe I didn't clean the pans well enough and there was some chemical residue left over from manufacturing. Will do another batch and see if the same thing happens. Edit: After several uses, the pans have developed some pitting in the bottom section and two tiny rust spots in the upper one. This doesn't affect the performance, but is something to note if you want to buy a better quality product. The water did become clear after the 2nd try. Also, I turned the heat up higher so it doesn't take as long to fill a gallon jug. The water tastes good, too.
